UNUSUAL VALUES IN NEW HOMES Pay for Your Home REAL ESTATE GROUP TO STUDY FACTORIES Topics Outlined for Autumn Con- vention of Industrial Property Division at St. Louis. Must the industrial building be suit- able for one type of manufacturing only, or is it possible to standardize in- dustrial buildings and give them a wider range of usefulness than they have heretofore had? Can every com- | munity afford to court industry and secure the location of a large plant in | its midst? When should the indus- | trialist turn to the realtor for help in solving his most difficult problem, that of location for his factbries and what specific services can he expect from the mn?who specializes in industrial prop- 24 These are some of the subjects which will be discussed at the second annual Autumn convention of the industrial property division of the National Asso- | ciation of Real Estate Boards to be held in St. Louis, Mo., at the Jefferson Hotel, November 18, 19 and 20. These ses- sions will follow closely upon the regu- lar quarterly meeting of the associa- tion's executive committee and board of directors, which takes place in Chicago November 12, 13 and 14. Segregation of industrial concerns in a subdivision laid out and planned solely for the location of manufacturing plants, just as the residential subdivi- slon restricts itself to homes, will be treated at the opening sessions of the Industrial Realtors’ meeting. Making such industrial subdivisions profitable, from the standpoint of land and buildings, will be discussed by special ists who have had extensive experience in this phase of real estate.
